A report from the Tennessee Highway Patrol indicated that the crash occurred at 11:01 a.m. on Wednesday at Harr Road in Sullivan County.

THP said the driver of the Lincoln, Anthony Widner, 27, was injured in the crash. Charges against Widner are pending with the Washington County, Virginia, Sheriff’s Office.

The driver of the Dodge was reportedly not injured.
